Why didn't we Reform the Cost of Health Care?

D.C. has it's own agenda, it's own talking points. When it came to health care, the real issue never came up: why does health care cost so much. Time Magazine's Steven Brill did an extensive report on what we should have been talking about, and what we should have reformed to bring down costs.

Brill also obliterates the idea that health care is a consumer product, and open to free market competition, like we hear so often from Paul Ryan. This is a must see for those brushing up on the whole health care debate. Like Jon Stewart, this is a killer article and interview.
